Dette er nemlig Formelen, som beskriver Selvets Tilstand, naar Fortvivlelsen ganske er udryddet: i at forholde sig til sig selv, og i at ville være sig selv grunder Selvet gjennemsigtigt i den Magt, som satte det. (This is namely the formula, that describes the condition of the self, when despair is completely eradicated: by relating itself to itself, and by willing to be itself, the self is grounded transparently in the power which constituted it) (Søren Kierkegaard, The sickness unto death)

[flag]en[/flag]In the last posts we were talking abouthow Romanian preserved 4 verb categories as opposed to 3 that can be found in the other Latin languages.

And also about the conjugation and its origin.The infinitive form doesn't tell you exactly how the verb is supposed to be conjugated.And that there are some endings like -ește and -ează which make it more complicated.

Also Italian preserved the 4 verb categories!

Italian has 4 conjugations?...

Yes, it has 4 conjugations:

1) lodare2) temere3) leggere4) udire

The difference between (2) and (3) is that (2)temere has the stress on -ére, while (3)leggere has the stress on the root: lèggere. Usually, the verbs of the third group have an irregular past participle (leggere - letto), and the second group has the regular ending -uto (temere - temuto).
